Stellar list of questions, Mark. (And that was a spectacular prank. Something tells me Anne remembered that much longer than she would’ve remembered the award.)
“Unfortunately, most people didn’t ask the foregoing questions.”
I would go one step further:
“Unfortunately, most people didn’t ask ANY questions.”
I suspect a lot of people did ask questions. Maybe even some of the questions on Mark's excellent list. They were just afraid to ask them out loud. The human animal seems to have an infinite capacity for self deception. It seems that many otherwise intelligent folks have mastered Orwellian doublethink to the extent that they can ask a question, know the answer, and acknowledge the answer is insane. And then ignore the question. Or maybe its just the inherent laziness of our instant gratification world. 'Go along to get along'.
The scientists made fun of me because I did ask questions. I have been called a stupid cow, a negator of science, stupid, you name it, from family and people I thought were very close friends. I repaid some of them with repeated questions ! At least two have woken up now. They did not apologize, but one told be to be dead scared, seeing all the adverse reactions of the jabbed.
I'm an independent contractor in my field and I just got a call from long time friend about a job on the east coast. Was getting ready to book my ticket and the company I'd be working for sent me their "return to work safely" requirements. Which includes boosters. I turned down the job and probably have lost a lifelong friend. What it made me realize is that Covid "true believers", those that are committed blindly to the idea that the virus is deadly and the shots are effective and safe, believe in the "mythology" of covid and have not exposed themselves to any facts or opinions to the contrary. They've been successfully walled off from "disinformation". In their minds, why have a choice? Covid's deadly, and the totally safe shots (Walensky said so) will keep you out of the hospital. Why wouldn't you? As my friend said," I can't imagine what your problem is." Our country lives in totally separate information bubbles and this is not good. I sincerely hope that the Musk acquisition of Twitter will begin to break this wall down. At least to the point where more people can begin to understand different points of view. We have become a Tower of Babel and that ain't good.
Totally agree, and I congratulate you on your decision. The jabbed are unhealthier by far, so it seems. All kinds of problems. Send your friend the 9pages of adverse reactions from Pfizer. That might open their eyes. It helped when I mentioned it to one of mine. He is now awoken, stopped masking, and I don't think he will boost again.
People in my town are dropping like flies and the witnesses to it are all going “hmmm….so strange, I wonder what it could be?”
It is MANDATORY to have CPR training if you are a manager in any shop, the sheep are still masking, plemplem are so brainwashed I’m lucky if someone does not cross the road when they see me cross their path.
However more people are questioning the need for a booster….
I work with about 35 attorneys - they are trained to ask questions, evaluate evidence, be alert to conflicts of interests and flat out lying ... but none did; all rushed out and got vaxed as soon as the state "made it available" to them (e.g. health care workers first, then elderly, etc).
and now, one of them (29 yr old) has been told she has a "post-Covid heart condition"; she is following her "treatment plan" which I assume includes the very expensive, blood thinning med from Pfizer: Eliquis
But not planned by humans. Humans don't have the capacity to do it so well. What humans do very well is me-tooism. This covid overreaction me-too freakout was orchestrated by the top evil spirit, and spread throughout humankind so easily as humans have a need to follow the crowd and do as everyone else is doing.
The key question in early 2020 was, where are all the sick people?
For such an allegedly quick-spreading, serious, dangerous virus we should have been surrounded by sick people, in our homes, neighbours, friends, workplace - and I don’t mean hospitalised, just people feeling so ill they would stay at home, go to bed.
We have all lived through Winters where ‘a bug has been going around’, lots of people away from work, lots of people around sick with ‘the bug’… but in Jan - Mar 2020, nothing. And subsequently during the next ‘waves’ an absence of sick people around us.
You don’t need to be an expert or check hospital admissions, just observe the surrounding. community.
The only sick people we saw were on the daily computer predictions and graphs of dead and dying - but around us? Nothing.
We had a pandemic of wellness - even ‘flu and Colds had disappeared. Also a pandemic of PCR Tests but this was mostly healthy people.
Amen! One of the most disturbing things I learned during this is that people can’t see what’s right in front of them. They’re relying on the media to form their world view! It’s crazy.
Amen too! I live in my sister's house (planning to move out ASAP!) I got COVID-19 in late April 2021. I was cured quickly and easily by way of homeopathy. My sister took care of me, brought me tea and soup (masked of course). She watched this happen, and now denies that this ever happened. She insists "we don't know if you had COVID." Who's "we" I think - is she taking a pole? I know I had it, my doctor does.... but my triple vaxxed sister believes us both to be stupid. She knows better. Sigh. Cannot wait to to find a place to live on my own, go to the supermarket, cook my meals, read books and hole up. This is nuts!
Our community had a few weeks where there were lots more funerals than usual. There also were 2 short periods where the hospital was over capacity, and they had to put patients in a hurriedly emptied part. Most of the dead were indeed older, but not all, I know a few in their 50 and early 60s, but already sick or with underlying conditions. I also know of one elderly person dying of the jab.
there actually WAS a very serious flu-like bug going around in our area -- it nailed 3 people in my office of about 30 people, which is quite a high number (and these people do not work together or in close proximity). This was in January 2020. We have wondered if it was COVID. Who knows? It was serious and unusual enough that we all took note at the time.
This is right up my contrarian alley. For almost two years I've been investigating the hypothesis that this virus WAS spreading - and spreading "widely" - months before the lockdowns - Even before the "Wuhan outbreak" which was reported by China to the W.H.O. on December 31, 2019. One piece of "evidence" that fits my hypothesis is that "the flu" was "widespread" and "severe" in many sections of the country beginning in November 2019, but with obvious spikes in December and January. For example, schools across the country closed due to a "flu-like illness." I was sick in January - and tested "negative" for flu and have found scores of acquaintances who were also sick. Most either tested negative for flu or never got a flu test.
Here's a feature story I wrote on an Alabama couple who almost certainly had COVID in December 2019. Both tested positive for antibodies and the husband had a severe case and almost died. This story got no national attention - Still hasn't ... but it's the story that got me started investigating this "off limits" hypothesis. I invite readers to read it themselves and tell me if these are indeed "likely" cases (and they weren't the only Americans who later tested positive for antibodies).
Here's another question: Why didn't CDC or state health officials ever even talk to this couple? The husband has hundreds of pages of medical records that all match a severe case of Covid.
Like. You are not the only one suspecting this. I read several stories from Europe, a Frenchman in December 19 and several others. I wonder if the leak was indeed in September, the virus spread among the military (the european sick were almost all near a base). So much to investigate but no one looks into it.
My son-in-law was extremely ill in January 2020 for 6-8 weeks. Elevated temp, relentless cough, said he felt like he couldn’t breathe unless he laid on his stomach. His wife, my daughter, is a RN in an Arizona hospital. She got mildly ill at the time. We now always say that we’re so glad he got ill before anyone knew about C19, otherwise if was a month or two later, he may have gone into a hospital and gotten put on a ventilator etc. and might’ve died (been killed by the awful treatment protocols). Oh, and also when folks first starting hearing of Covid19 in Feb/Mar 2020, everyone I knew with young children noted their kids had ‘some sort of weird flu’ during Nov/Dec 2019.
Glad they recovered, and yes, I think you are right. The so called protocols killed more than they saved. And the meds that helped were quickly forbidden. One of the biggest Hydrox producing factories even burned (bombed?)
Thanks for sharing that story. You make a great point I hadn't really thought enough about. Two months later and these sick people probably would have been put on a vent and gotten all of those sedation drugs.
Re: "So much to investigate but no one looks into it." And how, say I. You might be interested in my follow-up piece, which provides EVIDENCE that nobody (who matters) is looking into this.
I concur. Two of my coworkers were quite ill in Nov-Dec 2019. Unusually long lasting symptoms, notably in their chests and lungs; different from a normal flu or cold, they averred. Then the covid-mania hit shortly after.
"Different than a normal flu or cold." I've saved HUNDREDS of posts (found on Reader Comment sites) where people say the same thing. Are they ALL mistaken? One of the 17 Americans - from published media accounts - of Americans who were sick in November or December 2019 and later tested positive for antibodies is from a 64-year-old retired nurse in rural Washington state. She's a nurse. She's been seeing sick patients her entire working career and, presumably like all of us, had suffered through the "normal flu" several times in her life. She says this was NOT like other flu cases she'd had. She's adamant she had COVID. She did have COVID. In fact, she could/should have been the first "confirmed" case of Covid in the world. But her case has never been "confirmed." Still, her case is somewhat unique in that state and local health officials DID look into her case. They even said - per the Seattle Times - it was "very possible" she did have COVID. But the CDC has never spoken with her and the first "official" Covid case in America is still in January 2020.
Were they ever tested for anything? In February, I had an extremely bad case of Influenza A (I tested positive for it); knocked me out for 10 days - two weeks. I wondered if maybe I had Covid mixed in with the Influenza - who knows? They weren't testing for it yet.
Since then, I've been very healthy; no Covid, just recently had a typical cold/sinus infection that was identical to every cold I've had for the past 20-30 years.
An anecdote from my possible "early case." I had ALL the COVID symptoms in January 2020, was sick enough to go to the doctor and tested negative for flu. My doctor later told me - in an interview with me wearing my freelance journalist hat - that his "gut instinct" is that COVID was spreading earlier than we've been told. And adminstrator friend at the same medical practice (which serves 12 counties) told me that doctors and nurses were wondering, "Is there something wrong with the flu tests?" Because so many people with flu-type symptoms were testing negative for flu. I also have never tested positive for COVID since via a PCR test, which suggests I might have acquired natural immunity from my "non-case." I think there are probably MILLIONS of Americans like me.
I agree, there was definitely something going around January, and even more February of 2020. I noticed a lot of people/families that were out for at least a week with a serious bug.
Same thing happened in my office around Christmas 2019. I didn’t get whatever it was but my coworkers all said it was like the worst flu they’d ever had.
Thanks for sharing this. Every time I make a post mentioning my early spread hypothesis, I get several replies from people who say they were either sick themselves with a weird Covid-type illness or people who know people who were. I think there are millions of "possibles." I'm not saying all of these people had COVID ... but some percentage DID.
I have a sister who is an ICU nurse. She said it was bad - really bad. She tears up when she talks about it. She also says alot of people died due to poor care in the hospital and could have made it.
And sadly they’re still being ruined. I watched two young girls marching to the bus stop this morning with mama bringing up the rear. Kids in masks, their mother was not.
One of my daughters is an IMCU nurse and was caring for covid patients. The difference with this virus is the unusual way it was attacking the body making treatment difficult under the restrictions the hospitals were given. Nurses and doctors witnessed ugly deaths and it scared some into believing the narrative, but others saw they were being purposely restricted from using treatment options that would work. Too many doctors and nurses did not ask enough questions and went along with the medical brainwashing.
Imagine for the doctors and nurses trusting health officials that the best you can do for them in March 2020 was to throw them on a vent. Hospital admins loved the money aspect of that, but for the workers it must have been horrifying.
I've a friend whose son is a traveling nurse, and he revealed what was going on. It's horrible what the hospital staff did during the "pandemic". Doctors, nurses, would not enter rooms because they were terrified of catching the virus. Patients developed bedsores, were not served food, nor given water. This is why ventilators were used! They wanted to control the exhalations of patients. Heaven forbid any health care worker me exposed to SARS-Cov-2!
And then they had the audacity to put signs outside hospitals saying, "Heroes Work Here". Shame on the medical profession.
But no - they took care of that ahead of time by granting legal immunity to the entire medical mafia on anything regarding covid - so more justification to call EVERYthing covid.
ICU is always ‘really bad’ because that’s where severe cases of anything go. The point I made was the absence of sick peopke around us in normal life. For one thing people who get infected do not go immediately to ICU, it can take up to ten days before CoVid becomes serious. So back to, where were all the sick people either before they were serious enough to go to hospital, or not serious enough to need hospital?
I think it spread worldwide a whole lot earlier than advertised (Jan 2020). If that’s correct, TONS of people had already been exposed to one degree or another months before any lockdown….
I have no doubt you are correct. The push-back against the "early spread" hypothesis is that there would have been too many deaths to "miss." The fact is though that 99.8 percent of people who come down with COVID survive, with very few even being serious enough to have to go to the hospital. But I think older people WERE dying in December, January into early March 2020. These deaths were just attributed to pneumonia or the flu or unknown causes. Some officials must know this and I strongly suspect have covered up this knowledge. The main way they cover this up is to simply NOT investigate likely early cases. What they don't investigate can't be "confirmed."
Exactly. I knew quite a few people in Fall-Winter 2019 who had a “mystery illness” to various degrees. I had what I thought was a really bad bronchitis in Feb 2020, never saw a doctor, just put up w/ it until it went away. And you’re surely correct that the old &/or frail were dying & chocked up to flu or pneumonia, as they do every winter. Would totally ruin the plan if it could’ve been proved there was natural herd immunity 6 months or more before March 2020. It makes my blood boil to think what we’ve all been put through & I just don’t know that the karmic wheel will turn for those responsible. I hope so
Well, my elderly mom and her elderly boyfriend were sent home THREE times when they kept going to urgent care/emergency room when they were both very ill with Covid. Their instructions each time? Go home, take Tylenol, only come back if you get even sicker. They were 80 years old and extremely ill. It was ridiculous and shameful. Her boyfriend finally ended up in hospital for almost two weeks, on oxygen. She was also very ill for over a month, finally got monoclonal antobodies...I’ve no clue whether that helped.
Im 63 & my husband is 71. We came down w/ WuFlu pneumonia right before Christmas. I had to be on home 02 for about 15 days & we both got monoclonals & my provider said it was probably the only thing that kept me out of the hospital. Couldn’t return to work for almost a month.
It IS disgraceful how your mom & partner were treated. I guess if they couldn’t kill them by keeping them OUT of the hospital, they hoped to do so IN hospital. They’re lucky; my greatest fear was getting hospitalized because I knew they’d try to kill me w/ phony treatments or vent me or something.
Several nurses seem to be of that idea. I read a story in NYC from a nurse who stated, she did not see one person die from the virus, but several from maltreating.
I read in The Epoch Times certain hospitals did two things automatically with Covid "cases." Put them on massive quantities of the drug Fauci praises. Remdesivir. This can cause organ failure. Put them on ventilators at the highest setting that may damage the lungs permanently if they survive. They were denied food or drink due to fears of contagion and cowardly nurses avoided them since they believed they'd get infected and die.
(Not all hospitals, doctors or nurses! I don't want to be unjust to nurses like your sister.)
Worth noting too that the government offered $45,000 for every Covid death reported by a hospital. Not patients treated or lives saved. Deaths.
I have a cousin who is an ER nurse and she said 2020-21 was a normal year at her hospital. Other years were worse for her colleagues. Every region experienced flu seasons differently.
You just described my thought process for the last two plus years. I am one those people who never believed in the plandemic. From the moment they said lock down. I raised so many questions with public officials. I sent them countless data reports, articles, medical reports. They all repeated the same thing. They sounded just like fauci. Even my own doctor when I challenged him would repeat the same nonsense. He even tried to tell me and my husband this was like the time of ww11 with us making sacrifices for the collective good. Then when I started hearing them say, little kids should stay away from grandma or they might kill her. I said, " I am great grandma and that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. I have binders full of data and articles. When they started censoring, banning and vilifying doctors, experts, researchers and scientists guess who I looked to for information? The doctors, experts, researchers and scientists that were censored, banned and vilified. I am grateful I never bought into this. I have never been tested and I wouldn't consider taking their experimental drugs. I found people like Robert Kennedy Jr. I read his book on fauci, gates and pharma. I was not surprised to learn just how corrupt the cdc, the fda and the nih are. I personally believe this was planned for the great reset, too many world leaders all graduated from the WEF. Too many repeated the same mantras. I am past the point of appeasing the people that are under the mass psychosis. I don't care if I've lost friends, I refuse to live under a lie so someone else can "feel" better, "feel" safer. It's not my job to wear a mask so you feel anything. I miss the days when men were men, and told it like it was, your feelings be damned. I grew up in the Era of use your brain for something besides a hat rack. My father's favorite saying. God Bless him.
My sister died 4 days after her second dose of a brain aneurism. I've had countless friends go into the hospital never to return. After what I've learned, they never stood a chance.
Just watched an interview with Dr. Richard Urso explaining his observations on the last two years. He also discussed what's happening to the vaccinated. That's another thing that burned my buns "it's a pandemic of the unvaccinated" sorry, that's not what the data that you are ignoring, is showing. It's good to know there are people who still use their brains. How will this end? We have to wait and see. I thank God every day I raised my kids the same way. None of them have been vaccinated and none of them believed for a minute in this nonsense. My kids didn't go to college in the usual way, we learned a long time ago they are no longer educating but indoctrinating. That's why we have so many young people thinking the world is going to end. Maybe it will but I'm quite sure bill gates and his cronies won't be the ones to save it.
It's a "conspiracy" to cover-up the truth that involves people in virtually EVERY institution in the land. There's too many people involved to ever really learn how many people must have been involved (if that makes sense).
Prank my ass. The PANICDEMIC was the biggest crime perpetrated against humanity by so-called public health officials and elected officials in the history of humankind.
Why are we making people who've had and recovered from the virus take the shots? Why are we making pregnant women, yes WOMEN, take the shots when they aren't supposed to eat certain cheeses, lunch meats, or handle cat litter for crying out loud! Any why, for the love of all that is good, are we insisting that people take endless boosters? In the span of little more than a year!
Why were we made to socially distance at the airport and airport line while boarding a tiny CRJ prop only to get in the plane and legit sit on top of (for two hours) the same strangers you had to keep six feet of distance from minutes earlier?
One biggie: why suppress, and even outright ban, the use of formerly "safe and effective" alternative treatments? As I've commented before; if they at least said, "go ahead, try them, try anything you think might help", I might have bought into the scam.
The question is in the article regarding mostly interstate travel. I am in Canada and it is brutal trying to travel without the injection. I just came back from the US visiting family that I haven't seen for over two and a half years, and now I still have to pay the price of quarantining, testing, masking, and being unable to return to my job for two weeks. I overheard a young woman in line at a gas station in Calais commenting to her friend that she just got back from Canada and she was so glad to be back. She said it's crazy in Canada. The young woman is a returning university student, so experienced all measures in Canada including the university requirenment to be jabbed in order to attend. Imagine the anger in the university student population with the jab mandates being dropped by some schools. Most students took those shots under duress, and now they are left with a lifetime of health worry.
Canada seems to have completely jumped the shark. I'd give up on my friendly neighbors to the north except these were the people who organized the one large-scale protest that, for a while, had legs. It's amazing how easily the prime minister nipped that in the bud with his "emergency orders." This tells me what's in store for the rest of us down the road.
My bad: Instead of endlessly hyping the shots, why have the government and media suppressed information regarding various preventive and therapeutic measures that were used against other viruses?
Absolutely! Doctors should be trying all methods when there are dying patients. But, they won't even do that with cancer patients. Doctors are controlled by the medical brainwashing establishment.
Why were "essential" people allowed to work and travel if there was a dangerous communicable disease about? Wouldn't they catch it? Who would then do the "essential" jobs?
To keep all the alcoholics out of the hospitals. They suffer health consequences if they have to go through immediate withdrawal, particularly ketoacidosis.
Fwiw, I caught it (I suspect from a fomite) in a public library. Then got over it, tried to go back to the library, and it was first fully, then effectively, closed for a year. (Closed the barn door when the horse was already out?) But hey, hand sanitizer ran out. Had to go to the liquor store to get makings. But don't buy anything from a liquor store in states like this that banned Russian vodka!
Why are injected people allowed to travel and spread covid without testing, masking, or quarantining while un~injected have to stay home or quarantine, test, and mask for two weeks if they do find a way to travel?
The sudden cropping up of masks, red stickers, barking authoritarian tones at public venues, the forced visual cues were constant, badgering reminders of alarm, because without having seen/heard them, I swear I never would've known that there was a "pandemic."
I've always thought the entire thing could have been missed. If the press had not covered it, it wouldn't have happened. Hundreds of thousands of innocent people are killed in wars (usually started by America), but there are no stories or photos showing this. It might as well have not happened. All the vaccine deaths today (Including, possibly, a James Madsion star softball player yesterday) ... might as well not have happened.
I knew your question list was just partial. Which makes your main point even more obvious. You could have included 100 other common-sense questions. I actually posted 30 of my questions somewhere else in the Comments Section (for an article I wrote that no one would publish last April). I should have posted those questions here. My bad.
I love your angle of thinking of this as a prank, and how some people catch on and others don't. And it is very cruel.
And they haven't finished yet with this elaborate prank -- that is why they are not coming clean about it.
This is actually a very useful analogy -- there really IS such a thing as "duping delight" of sociopaths. Which these perpetrators are. So much fun in laughing behind closed doors, anticipating pulling one over on (in this case) the entire population of the world.... seeing how extreme the lies can be and have people still believe them and go along with the absurd theater of covering faces when standing up (but taking the mask off when seated/eating), wiping off groceries, hating on their friends, shunning relatives at Christmas, coercing people to jab themselves (repeatedly!) with poisons, wearing face shields and rubber gloves, walking wide paths when encountering another pedestrian, and an endless number of increasingly bizarre "and so ons."
This reminds me of the video game "The Sims." Power and control and ruling the world. It's just a game to them, and the subjects of the game are just expendable characters to be toyed with.
Make people do very embarrassing things. Laugh at them behind closed doors.
But eventually you will reveal what has been done to them (what they actually did to themselves, at your suggestion -- no, it was never forced. They "chose" it. So you are blameless. You DID actually tell the truth at times, sprinkled in. It's their fault if they didn't figure it out -- so dumb!). Now, laugh at them to their face. Bwahahahahahahaaaaaa!!!!!!! (we are not there yet)
And that is part of the fun for these sociopaths -- when the prank is revealed, and the look of horror on the person's face -- they now have VAIDS, they fired their good employees for no reason, their elderly mother died alone in a nursing home and they didn't hold a funeral, etc.
So! Much! Fun! On so many levels, for these very SICK predatory sociopathic evil monsters.
It's even fun for them, that some of us have figured out their game, but our loved ones have not, so we look on in horror as they continue to jab themselves and we can't protect them or wake them up.
Ah yes, I see where you are going with this. It is like they are jealous and have a vindictiveness in their heart, because of their own inadequacies; and they can only feel better by punishing others. The Count of Monte Cristo on steroids!
very good way of describing it! it's not only that they're lacking compassion or empathy, they don't know what it is and are terrified of it. also they somehow understand that it's something they would want to have, but they can't, which makes them envious. this lies at the heart of their ruthlessness - never going for a win-win but for nothing less than a total crush.
The idea that there are no conspiracies seems wrong post Covid. How could there be so many coincidences if not coordinated? Now the food shortage announcement and factories burning when China and Gates are buying our farmland feels planned. I now question everything. I didn’t take the jabs due to a pre-existing autoimmune disease, but I also never trusted them.
And virtually everything labeled “conspiracy theory” a year ago, 6 months ago or even just 6 weeks ago have proven true. Someone on another blog cleverly said “conspiracy theory = spoiler alert”
Good article Mark! I remember going to the grocery store and asking the checkout clerk why she was wearing a mask. “People are dying” she said.
It struck me that no one thinks of how many people die each day. For a very very long time (millenia?) we haven’t gone one day without someone dying, if not scores of people dying. I looked up the number and it’s over 2000 deaths per day in the US. Pre Covid post Covid. It’s just gonna happen. Doesn’t make me heartless to say the number. But it can be used to manipulate the uninformed!
(Update: I was way off. Over 8000 per day! 😱. 1.67 per second world wide)
Mark nails one of the key questions I've asked as well: How many people did you personally know - under the age of 80 (or 70) who died from COVID? Even today - 25 months since the official start date of the pandemic - I can only name three people I personally knew who died from Covid. One was 70, one was 80 and one was 81. Three known deaths in 25 months and all of them had lived a long life.
I'm pretty sure that most of the corona maniacs are actually not done. None of it ever made any sense and still doesn't. I knew right away and told my wife (back in March 2020) that none of this is sustainable, everything is gonna break, and they're just going to spread misery.
The part that I got wrong is that I thought that was enough for it to be stopped sooner than later. Little did I know then that the destruction and misery is apparently the goal.
The maniacs don't care if it is a patently obvious farce. Maybe even better for their goal. The corona maniacs are also sadists to some degree IMO. It really is about submission... to an obvious farce.
In a thousand years I would have never thought that 85 percent of the country could be vaccinated ... and then cases still explode ... and almost everyone still thinks the vaccines "work" and should be mandated for everyone.
If the masses utilized their God-given critical skills, if they weren’t such “skilled TV watchers” they would have refused to comply and this whole government-imposed tragedy would have folded quite quickly. But they didn’t so it didn’t.
Yet another great read! To me, it all added up to evil/control from the beginning, especially it being an election year, but I had no idea how bad it would get. Hubby and I talk about where it will all go from here. I'm undecided. If there is a revival and a return to Christ and morality, we go one way. If not, we continue down this path of destruction until society as we know it completely collapses. There will be a first domino and then it will go fast I think.
I was recently with a friend and their 30 something son and we visited a restaurant. The son dutifully placed a mask on his face upon entering and removed it when seated. He then replaced it upon his face to use the restroom and then removed it upon return. I kept my mouth shut as it wasn't my place to stir up a hornet's nest, but this is pure unquestioned conditioning. "It's just what we've always done" seems to be the current modus operandi to why people are doing things that clearly make no rational/scientific sense. It's sad and frightening that people are so blindly compliant.
I was saddened to recently meet an old friend (60 something) at an OUTDOOR restaurant, and yes, he dutifully arrived wearing his mask and kept it on while seated until the food arrived, and even then he randomly would put it back on for awhile. In these parts, as you say you kept your mouth shut, it is considered highly disrespectful to question someone's masking choices. (we never had an outdoor mask mandate here. His reasons remain his own private mystery)
And why, if our government is sooo concerned about the health of Americans, were liquor stores deemed essential and open for business while gyms were not.
Not in Arizona it wasn't. All golf courses stayed open. Our Canadian friends were put thru hell. Worst part? They were convinced their government was doing the right thing.
In Maryland they closed the Chesapeake Bay to private boats. This meant that even if it was you and your wife on a boat and you left from your private dock and sailed around for a couple hours then returned home, nope! You might catch or spread it.
Isn’t is crazy when we look back at all of this ridiculousness? And I believe that they’ll try it again. And again. We must not comply next time. It’s the only answer that I can come up with. If everyone refuses to concede our individual rights guaranteed under the USA laws, that will work. (None of these mandates were actually legal, in my opinion.) We must all turn our backs to it, ignore it, not comply. ALL of us. It’s not ‘real’.
I live winters in the wilderness of California by a ski resort. No one here even thought for one moment to obey the stupid shut down directives. When we went to the big city of Modesto 75 miles away all the food factory and winery and orchard workers kept working as "essential workers". There was never an interruption. The very idea that anyone THAT ANYONE would obey stay at home "orders" was as laughable then as it is now. The anecdotal stories of most all normal old age or cancer or heart attack & etc deaths being recorded as covid deaths just confirmed the fact that it was all a hoax. No... I realize covid is a serious seasonal virus that does indeed kill but obviously not any more serious than HonKing flu or Swine Flu of a few years prior... yes of course it is a real disease... that's not the hoax part... just the overreaction is... anyway... ...from March of 2020 we knew it was a terrible overreaction. Why anyone much less a whole nation would obey stay at home and mask up orders made no sense. A BB going thru a chain link fence is the same as a covid virus germ going thru a mask for Christ sake... anyone who know anything about the science of are sold knows this... anyway... So we all just ignored it ... and no one ever told us we had to. Except at the doors to stores. Where we all put on a mask for the 20 seconds to get into the store. Question: who was dumb enough to take the stay at home orders seriously? Oh wait I know I know... it was and still is 80% of the population. The only thing g that keeps me sane about it all? Is... The fact that Canada and Australia and NZ and England were all even worse!!!!!
My god ...how can we blame today's Russians for believing their obviously false war propaganda? When look at the way "we" believed the Covid propaganda... crazy stuff ehhh?
I had a back-and-forth email dialogue with the leading sports columnist in my state. He wrote a series of columns in the summer of 2020 basically calling for the cancellation of college football (and all sports) to protect the athletes. Even in July 2020 I could tell him that COVID posed no risk to healthy young athletes. Furthermore, if he wanted to save the proverbial "one life," he should call for the abolition of the sport of football - which kills about five to 12 people every year (from broken necks, heart attacks, heat stroke, etc).
Another sad lesson: People proven to be spectacularly wrong never face any repercussions for being spectacularly wrong. As a writer myself, I sometime go back and read old articles I wrote just to see if what I wrote "holds up." Just about every piece our well-known columnists write does NOT hold up and looks silly in retrospect. Doesn't matter. These people still are considered authorities and remain "opinion makers."
Stellar list of questions, Mark. (And that was a spectacular prank. Something tells me Anne remembered that much longer than she would’ve remembered the award.)
“Unfortunately, most people didn’t ask the foregoing questions.”
I would go one step further:
“Unfortunately, most people didn’t ask ANY questions.”
This makes me wonder if Anne turned into a Corona Karen during the scamdemic?
All signs point to Yes.
I suspect a lot of people did ask questions. Maybe even some of the questions on Mark's excellent list. They were just afraid to ask them out loud. The human animal seems to have an infinite capacity for self deception. It seems that many otherwise intelligent folks have mastered Orwellian doublethink to the extent that they can ask a question, know the answer, and acknowledge the answer is insane. And then ignore the question. Or maybe its just the inherent laziness of our instant gratification world. 'Go along to get along'.
The scientists made fun of me because I did ask questions. I have been called a stupid cow, a negator of science, stupid, you name it, from family and people I thought were very close friends. I repaid some of them with repeated questions ! At least two have woken up now. They did not apologize, but one told be to be dead scared, seeing all the adverse reactions of the jabbed.
I'm an independent contractor in my field and I just got a call from long time friend about a job on the east coast. Was getting ready to book my ticket and the company I'd be working for sent me their "return to work safely" requirements. Which includes boosters. I turned down the job and probably have lost a lifelong friend. What it made me realize is that Covid "true believers", those that are committed blindly to the idea that the virus is deadly and the shots are effective and safe, believe in the "mythology" of covid and have not exposed themselves to any facts or opinions to the contrary. They've been successfully walled off from "disinformation". In their minds, why have a choice? Covid's deadly, and the totally safe shots (Walensky said so) will keep you out of the hospital. Why wouldn't you? As my friend said," I can't imagine what your problem is." Our country lives in totally separate information bubbles and this is not good. I sincerely hope that the Musk acquisition of Twitter will begin to break this wall down. At least to the point where more people can begin to understand different points of view. We have become a Tower of Babel and that ain't good.
Totally agree, and I congratulate you on your decision. The jabbed are unhealthier by far, so it seems. All kinds of problems. Send your friend the 9pages of adverse reactions from Pfizer. That might open their eyes. It helped when I mentioned it to one of mine. He is now awoken, stopped masking, and I don't think he will boost again.
People in my town are dropping like flies and the witnesses to it are all going “hmmm….so strange, I wonder what it could be?”
It is MANDATORY to have CPR training if you are a manager in any shop, the sheep are still masking, plemplem are so brainwashed I’m lucky if someone does not cross the road when they see me cross their path.
However more people are questioning the need for a booster….
These pseudoscientists need to (re?)learn the scientific method. Policy is inimical to science.
I work with about 35 attorneys - they are trained to ask questions, evaluate evidence, be alert to conflicts of interests and flat out lying ... but none did; all rushed out and got vaxed as soon as the state "made it available" to them (e.g. health care workers first, then elderly, etc).
and now, one of them (29 yr old) has been told she has a "post-Covid heart condition"; she is following her "treatment plan" which I assume includes the very expensive, blood thinning med from Pfizer: Eliquis
🤦♀️😣😢
Not a prank, but terrorism, plain and simple.
Almost everything the government does now, seems to be terrorism aimed at the citizens.
Think about it. And it seems this way, worldwide.
Dr. Vernon Coleman said this is to make us more willing to "accept" world government.
One thing is for sure, it is not "incompetence" but meticulously planned.
But not planned by humans. Humans don't have the capacity to do it so well. What humans do very well is me-tooism. This covid overreaction me-too freakout was orchestrated by the top evil spirit, and spread throughout humankind so easily as humans have a need to follow the crowd and do as everyone else is doing.
It certainly was planned by humans.
All of those "table top" exercises weren't just fun and games.
"Event 201"
Incorrect. Clearly planned in detail. See Event201
Humans didn’t design this: Satan did. Humans merely followed his directions.
Event201 was a deeply satanic psyop. And it isn’t really over yet.
Whoa! TWO doses of unadulterated TRUTH together.
Haven’t seen that happening in awhile!
The key question in early 2020 was, where are all the sick people?
For such an allegedly quick-spreading, serious, dangerous virus we should have been surrounded by sick people, in our homes, neighbours, friends, workplace - and I don’t mean hospitalised, just people feeling so ill they would stay at home, go to bed.
We have all lived through Winters where ‘a bug has been going around’, lots of people away from work, lots of people around sick with ‘the bug’… but in Jan - Mar 2020, nothing. And subsequently during the next ‘waves’ an absence of sick people around us.
You don’t need to be an expert or check hospital admissions, just observe the surrounding. community.
The only sick people we saw were on the daily computer predictions and graphs of dead and dying - but around us? Nothing.
We had a pandemic of wellness - even ‘flu and Colds had disappeared. Also a pandemic of PCR Tests but this was mostly healthy people.
Amen! One of the most disturbing things I learned during this is that people can’t see what’s right in front of them. They’re relying on the media to form their world view! It’s crazy.
Amen too! I live in my sister's house (planning to move out ASAP!) I got COVID-19 in late April 2021. I was cured quickly and easily by way of homeopathy. My sister took care of me, brought me tea and soup (masked of course). She watched this happen, and now denies that this ever happened. She insists "we don't know if you had COVID." Who's "we" I think - is she taking a pole? I know I had it, my doctor does.... but my triple vaxxed sister believes us both to be stupid. She knows better. Sigh. Cannot wait to to find a place to live on my own, go to the supermarket, cook my meals, read books and hole up. This is nuts!
Wow, that's a crazy story! Good luck with your plan. It does feel good to have your own space.
I used to believe the media myself, but by 2020 I had seen enough media lies to no longer believe them.
Funerals in our community were down and we never saw hearses carrying bodies. This didn’t add up with the State’s fear mongering.
Our community had a few weeks where there were lots more funerals than usual. There also were 2 short periods where the hospital was over capacity, and they had to put patients in a hurriedly emptied part. Most of the dead were indeed older, but not all, I know a few in their 50 and early 60s, but already sick or with underlying conditions. I also know of one elderly person dying of the jab.
there actually WAS a very serious flu-like bug going around in our area -- it nailed 3 people in my office of about 30 people, which is quite a high number (and these people do not work together or in close proximity). This was in January 2020. We have wondered if it was COVID. Who knows? It was serious and unusual enough that we all took note at the time.
This is right up my contrarian alley. For almost two years I've been investigating the hypothesis that this virus WAS spreading - and spreading "widely" - months before the lockdowns - Even before the "Wuhan outbreak" which was reported by China to the W.H.O. on December 31, 2019. One piece of "evidence" that fits my hypothesis is that "the flu" was "widespread" and "severe" in many sections of the country beginning in November 2019, but with obvious spikes in December and January. For example, schools across the country closed due to a "flu-like illness." I was sick in January - and tested "negative" for flu and have found scores of acquaintances who were also sick. Most either tested negative for flu or never got a flu test.
Here's a feature story I wrote on an Alabama couple who almost certainly had COVID in December 2019. Both tested positive for antibodies and the husband had a severe case and almost died. This story got no national attention - Still hasn't ... but it's the story that got me started investigating this "off limits" hypothesis. I invite readers to read it themselves and tell me if these are indeed "likely" cases (and they weren't the only Americans who later tested positive for antibodies).
Here's another question: Why didn't CDC or state health officials ever even talk to this couple? The husband has hundreds of pages of medical records that all match a severe case of Covid.
https://uncoverdc.com/2020/06/25/an-alabama-man-nearly-died-from-covid-19-the-first-week-in-january/
Like. You are not the only one suspecting this. I read several stories from Europe, a Frenchman in December 19 and several others. I wonder if the leak was indeed in September, the virus spread among the military (the european sick were almost all near a base). So much to investigate but no one looks into it.
My son-in-law was extremely ill in January 2020 for 6-8 weeks. Elevated temp, relentless cough, said he felt like he couldn’t breathe unless he laid on his stomach. His wife, my daughter, is a RN in an Arizona hospital. She got mildly ill at the time. We now always say that we’re so glad he got ill before anyone knew about C19, otherwise if was a month or two later, he may have gone into a hospital and gotten put on a ventilator etc. and might’ve died (been killed by the awful treatment protocols). Oh, and also when folks first starting hearing of Covid19 in Feb/Mar 2020, everyone I knew with young children noted their kids had ‘some sort of weird flu’ during Nov/Dec 2019.
Glad they recovered, and yes, I think you are right. The so called protocols killed more than they saved. And the meds that helped were quickly forbidden. One of the biggest Hydrox producing factories even burned (bombed?)
It’s all so blatant. And evil.
Might explain why children were immune to covid; they'd already had it!
Thanks for sharing that story. You make a great point I hadn't really thought enough about. Two months later and these sick people probably would have been put on a vent and gotten all of those sedation drugs.
Re: "So much to investigate but no one looks into it." And how, say I. You might be interested in my follow-up piece, which provides EVIDENCE that nobody (who matters) is looking into this.
https://uncoverdc.com/2020/07/13/covid-19-is-a-real-search-for-the-truth-now-taboo/
Some argue, based on sequencing, that the virus was evident in Asia sometime circa 2018
I concur. Two of my coworkers were quite ill in Nov-Dec 2019. Unusually long lasting symptoms, notably in their chests and lungs; different from a normal flu or cold, they averred. Then the covid-mania hit shortly after.
"Different than a normal flu or cold." I've saved HUNDREDS of posts (found on Reader Comment sites) where people say the same thing. Are they ALL mistaken? One of the 17 Americans - from published media accounts - of Americans who were sick in November or December 2019 and later tested positive for antibodies is from a 64-year-old retired nurse in rural Washington state. She's a nurse. She's been seeing sick patients her entire working career and, presumably like all of us, had suffered through the "normal flu" several times in her life. She says this was NOT like other flu cases she'd had. She's adamant she had COVID. She did have COVID. In fact, she could/should have been the first "confirmed" case of Covid in the world. But her case has never been "confirmed." Still, her case is somewhat unique in that state and local health officials DID look into her case. They even said - per the Seattle Times - it was "very possible" she did have COVID. But the CDC has never spoken with her and the first "official" Covid case in America is still in January 2020.
Were they ever tested for anything? In February, I had an extremely bad case of Influenza A (I tested positive for it); knocked me out for 10 days - two weeks. I wondered if maybe I had Covid mixed in with the Influenza - who knows? They weren't testing for it yet.
Since then, I've been very healthy; no Covid, just recently had a typical cold/sinus infection that was identical to every cold I've had for the past 20-30 years.
They were not tested because it was so early -- no one was thinking "COVID" at that point.
An anecdote from my possible "early case." I had ALL the COVID symptoms in January 2020, was sick enough to go to the doctor and tested negative for flu. My doctor later told me - in an interview with me wearing my freelance journalist hat - that his "gut instinct" is that COVID was spreading earlier than we've been told. And adminstrator friend at the same medical practice (which serves 12 counties) told me that doctors and nurses were wondering, "Is there something wrong with the flu tests?" Because so many people with flu-type symptoms were testing negative for flu. I also have never tested positive for COVID since via a PCR test, which suggests I might have acquired natural immunity from my "non-case." I think there are probably MILLIONS of Americans like me.
Like
P.S. Should have mentioned, I'm 64 (now) and in good health.
I agree, there was definitely something going around January, and even more February of 2020. I noticed a lot of people/families that were out for at least a week with a serious bug.
Same thing happened in my office around Christmas 2019. I didn’t get whatever it was but my coworkers all said it was like the worst flu they’d ever had.
Thanks for sharing this. Every time I make a post mentioning my early spread hypothesis, I get several replies from people who say they were either sick themselves with a weird Covid-type illness or people who know people who were. I think there are millions of "possibles." I'm not saying all of these people had COVID ... but some percentage DID.
I have a sister who is an ICU nurse. She said it was bad - really bad. She tears up when she talks about it. She also says alot of people died due to poor care in the hospital and could have made it.
I would think hospital workers are used to seeing old, overweight people die.
Kind of like me doing trial work and watching witnesses lie under oath: yeah, it sucks but what did you expect?
Many were young. Many like in their 40s.
Not according to the histograms I've seen.
And those few who died under 40 tended to be very unhealthy.
I would cry at seeing kids and teens die. And some kids killed themselves over the isolation. Many more just had their lives senselessly ruined.
.
How many kids were really sick with bacterial pneumonia caused by all the obsessive masking?
And sadly they’re still being ruined. I watched two young girls marching to the bus stop this morning with mama bringing up the rear. Kids in masks, their mother was not.
I live in a county with a population of 34,000. Two years into the pandemic I still have not heard of ONE person under 40 who died from Covid.
One of my daughters is an IMCU nurse and was caring for covid patients. The difference with this virus is the unusual way it was attacking the body making treatment difficult under the restrictions the hospitals were given. Nurses and doctors witnessed ugly deaths and it scared some into believing the narrative, but others saw they were being purposely restricted from using treatment options that would work. Too many doctors and nurses did not ask enough questions and went along with the medical brainwashing.
Imagine for the doctors and nurses trusting health officials that the best you can do for them in March 2020 was to throw them on a vent. Hospital admins loved the money aspect of that, but for the workers it must have been horrifying.
I've a friend whose son is a traveling nurse, and he revealed what was going on. It's horrible what the hospital staff did during the "pandemic". Doctors, nurses, would not enter rooms because they were terrified of catching the virus. Patients developed bedsores, were not served food, nor given water. This is why ventilators were used! They wanted to control the exhalations of patients. Heaven forbid any health care worker me exposed to SARS-Cov-2!
And then they had the audacity to put signs outside hospitals saying, "Heroes Work Here". Shame on the medical profession.
And on top of that, their families who would have advocated for them were locked out.
Completely criminal. There will be court cases for medical malpractice and neglect.
But no - they took care of that ahead of time by granting legal immunity to the entire medical mafia on anything regarding covid - so more justification to call EVERYthing covid.
ICU is always ‘really bad’ because that’s where severe cases of anything go. The point I made was the absence of sick peopke around us in normal life. For one thing people who get infected do not go immediately to ICU, it can take up to ten days before CoVid becomes serious. So back to, where were all the sick people either before they were serious enough to go to hospital, or not serious enough to need hospital?
I think it spread worldwide a whole lot earlier than advertised (Jan 2020). If that’s correct, TONS of people had already been exposed to one degree or another months before any lockdown….
I have no doubt you are correct. The push-back against the "early spread" hypothesis is that there would have been too many deaths to "miss." The fact is though that 99.8 percent of people who come down with COVID survive, with very few even being serious enough to have to go to the hospital. But I think older people WERE dying in December, January into early March 2020. These deaths were just attributed to pneumonia or the flu or unknown causes. Some officials must know this and I strongly suspect have covered up this knowledge. The main way they cover this up is to simply NOT investigate likely early cases. What they don't investigate can't be "confirmed."
Exactly. I knew quite a few people in Fall-Winter 2019 who had a “mystery illness” to various degrees. I had what I thought was a really bad bronchitis in Feb 2020, never saw a doctor, just put up w/ it until it went away. And you’re surely correct that the old &/or frail were dying & chocked up to flu or pneumonia, as they do every winter. Would totally ruin the plan if it could’ve been proved there was natural herd immunity 6 months or more before March 2020. It makes my blood boil to think what we’ve all been put through & I just don’t know that the karmic wheel will turn for those responsible. I hope so
Exactly! Coronavirus is "Infectious Bronchitis Virus". https://www.the-scientist.com/foundations/coronavirus-closeup-1964-67858
Well, my elderly mom and her elderly boyfriend were sent home THREE times when they kept going to urgent care/emergency room when they were both very ill with Covid. Their instructions each time? Go home, take Tylenol, only come back if you get even sicker. They were 80 years old and extremely ill. It was ridiculous and shameful. Her boyfriend finally ended up in hospital for almost two weeks, on oxygen. She was also very ill for over a month, finally got monoclonal antobodies...I’ve no clue whether that helped.
Im 63 & my husband is 71. We came down w/ WuFlu pneumonia right before Christmas. I had to be on home 02 for about 15 days & we both got monoclonals & my provider said it was probably the only thing that kept me out of the hospital. Couldn’t return to work for almost a month.
It IS disgraceful how your mom & partner were treated. I guess if they couldn’t kill them by keeping them OUT of the hospital, they hoped to do so IN hospital. They’re lucky; my greatest fear was getting hospitalized because I knew they’d try to kill me w/ phony treatments or vent me or something.
Several nurses seem to be of that idea. I read a story in NYC from a nurse who stated, she did not see one person die from the virus, but several from maltreating.
I read in The Epoch Times certain hospitals did two things automatically with Covid "cases." Put them on massive quantities of the drug Fauci praises. Remdesivir. This can cause organ failure. Put them on ventilators at the highest setting that may damage the lungs permanently if they survive. They were denied food or drink due to fears of contagion and cowardly nurses avoided them since they believed they'd get infected and die.
(Not all hospitals, doctors or nurses! I don't want to be unjust to nurses like your sister.)
Worth noting too that the government offered $45,000 for every Covid death reported by a hospital. Not patients treated or lives saved. Deaths.
I think "Death by Ventilator" is still one of the great unreported scandals of this pandemic.
It certainly ended up saving Social Security a lot of money.
I have a cousin who is an ER nurse and she said 2020-21 was a normal year at her hospital. Other years were worse for her colleagues. Every region experienced flu seasons differently.
Yup. I work at a large hospital in California. It was completely empty in 2020. We were all afraid of layoffs but fortunately that never happened.
Describes me the first week of March, 2020! It was real, though the public health people were worse than useless.
You just described my thought process for the last two plus years. I am one those people who never believed in the plandemic. From the moment they said lock down. I raised so many questions with public officials. I sent them countless data reports, articles, medical reports. They all repeated the same thing. They sounded just like fauci. Even my own doctor when I challenged him would repeat the same nonsense. He even tried to tell me and my husband this was like the time of ww11 with us making sacrifices for the collective good. Then when I started hearing them say, little kids should stay away from grandma or they might kill her. I said, " I am great grandma and that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. I have binders full of data and articles. When they started censoring, banning and vilifying doctors, experts, researchers and scientists guess who I looked to for information? The doctors, experts, researchers and scientists that were censored, banned and vilified. I am grateful I never bought into this. I have never been tested and I wouldn't consider taking their experimental drugs. I found people like Robert Kennedy Jr. I read his book on fauci, gates and pharma. I was not surprised to learn just how corrupt the cdc, the fda and the nih are. I personally believe this was planned for the great reset, too many world leaders all graduated from the WEF. Too many repeated the same mantras. I am past the point of appeasing the people that are under the mass psychosis. I don't care if I've lost friends, I refuse to live under a lie so someone else can "feel" better, "feel" safer. It's not my job to wear a mask so you feel anything. I miss the days when men were men, and told it like it was, your feelings be damned. I grew up in the Era of use your brain for something besides a hat rack. My father's favorite saying. God Bless him.
My sister died 4 days after her second dose of a brain aneurism. I've had countless friends go into the hospital never to return. After what I've learned, they never stood a chance.
Just watched an interview with Dr. Richard Urso explaining his observations on the last two years. He also discussed what's happening to the vaccinated. That's another thing that burned my buns "it's a pandemic of the unvaccinated" sorry, that's not what the data that you are ignoring, is showing. It's good to know there are people who still use their brains. How will this end? We have to wait and see. I thank God every day I raised my kids the same way. None of them have been vaccinated and none of them believed for a minute in this nonsense. My kids didn't go to college in the usual way, we learned a long time ago they are no longer educating but indoctrinating. That's why we have so many young people thinking the world is going to end. Maybe it will but I'm quite sure bill gates and his cronies won't be the ones to save it.
well put, TQ! it's a pandemic of the tests.
What does "TQ" mean? I've never seen that abbreviation.
short for thank you :-))
Great synopsis--100% agree with your summation!
It's a "conspiracy" to cover-up the truth that involves people in virtually EVERY institution in the land. There's too many people involved to ever really learn how many people must have been involved (if that makes sense).
vast networks, unaccounted for but slowly getting more exposed.
Excellent post, Dianna b.
Prank my ass. The PANICDEMIC was the biggest crime perpetrated against humanity by so-called public health officials and elected officials in the history of humankind.
PEOPLE NEED TO GO TO PRISON FOR WHAT THEY DID.
Totally agree. They all knew what they were doing.
Mark, you forgot a couple of questions...
Why are we making people who've had and recovered from the virus take the shots? Why are we making pregnant women, yes WOMEN, take the shots when they aren't supposed to eat certain cheeses, lunch meats, or handle cat litter for crying out loud! Any why, for the love of all that is good, are we insisting that people take endless boosters? In the span of little more than a year!
Good points. And there are likely other Qs I omitted. But one must respect readers' time.
I would like to have people tell me what other Qs I didn't include.
Why were we made to socially distance at the airport and airport line while boarding a tiny CRJ prop only to get in the plane and legit sit on top of (for two hours) the same strangers you had to keep six feet of distance from minutes earlier?
One biggie: why suppress, and even outright ban, the use of formerly "safe and effective" alternative treatments? As I've commented before; if they at least said, "go ahead, try them, try anything you think might help", I might have bought into the scam.
I think that's in there. Or at least it was in a prior draft.
The question is in the article regarding mostly interstate travel. I am in Canada and it is brutal trying to travel without the injection. I just came back from the US visiting family that I haven't seen for over two and a half years, and now I still have to pay the price of quarantining, testing, masking, and being unable to return to my job for two weeks. I overheard a young woman in line at a gas station in Calais commenting to her friend that she just got back from Canada and she was so glad to be back. She said it's crazy in Canada. The young woman is a returning university student, so experienced all measures in Canada including the university requirenment to be jabbed in order to attend. Imagine the anger in the university student population with the jab mandates being dropped by some schools. Most students took those shots under duress, and now they are left with a lifetime of health worry.
Canada seems to have completely jumped the shark. I'd give up on my friendly neighbors to the north except these were the people who organized the one large-scale protest that, for a while, had legs. It's amazing how easily the prime minister nipped that in the bud with his "emergency orders." This tells me what's in store for the rest of us down the road.
My bad: Instead of endlessly hyping the shots, why have the government and media suppressed information regarding various preventive and therapeutic measures that were used against other viruses?
Yes. Before the shots came out there. There were also MSM articles condemning taking extra vitamins like D3 and C.
Absolutely! Doctors should be trying all methods when there are dying patients. But, they won't even do that with cancer patients. Doctors are controlled by the medical brainwashing establishment.
Dollar Bill, y'all.
It's Dolla' Dolla' Bill Y'all.... ;)~
Why were "essential" people allowed to work and travel if there was a dangerous communicable disease about? Wouldn't they catch it? Who would then do the "essential" jobs?
Why were liquor stores open 24/7 and public libraries closed? priorities, I guess....
Here in NJ, liquor stores were considered "essential" but churches were not. Thank you fascist Murphy.
it really is maddening, isn't it!
To keep all the alcoholics out of the hospitals. They suffer health consequences if they have to go through immediate withdrawal, particularly ketoacidosis.
Fwiw, I caught it (I suspect from a fomite) in a public library. Then got over it, tried to go back to the library, and it was first fully, then effectively, closed for a year. (Closed the barn door when the horse was already out?) But hey, hand sanitizer ran out. Had to go to the liquor store to get makings. But don't buy anything from a liquor store in states like this that banned Russian vodka!
OK, so: sorry that you caught it, happy you got over it, sad about the Russian vodka, but reading this made me laugh out loud, TQ
Why are injected people allowed to travel and spread covid without testing, masking, or quarantining while un~injected have to stay home or quarantine, test, and mask for two weeks if they do find a way to travel?
The sudden cropping up of masks, red stickers, barking authoritarian tones at public venues, the forced visual cues were constant, badgering reminders of alarm, because without having seen/heard them, I swear I never would've known that there was a "pandemic."
I've always thought the entire thing could have been missed. If the press had not covered it, it wouldn't have happened. Hundreds of thousands of innocent people are killed in wars (usually started by America), but there are no stories or photos showing this. It might as well have not happened. All the vaccine deaths today (Including, possibly, a James Madsion star softball player yesterday) ... might as well not have happened.
they thrive on fear.
I knew your question list was just partial. Which makes your main point even more obvious. You could have included 100 other common-sense questions. I actually posted 30 of my questions somewhere else in the Comments Section (for an article I wrote that no one would publish last April). I should have posted those questions here. My bad.
I love your angle of thinking of this as a prank, and how some people catch on and others don't. And it is very cruel.
And they haven't finished yet with this elaborate prank -- that is why they are not coming clean about it.
This is actually a very useful analogy -- there really IS such a thing as "duping delight" of sociopaths. Which these perpetrators are. So much fun in laughing behind closed doors, anticipating pulling one over on (in this case) the entire population of the world.... seeing how extreme the lies can be and have people still believe them and go along with the absurd theater of covering faces when standing up (but taking the mask off when seated/eating), wiping off groceries, hating on their friends, shunning relatives at Christmas, coercing people to jab themselves (repeatedly!) with poisons, wearing face shields and rubber gloves, walking wide paths when encountering another pedestrian, and an endless number of increasingly bizarre "and so ons."
This reminds me of the video game "The Sims." Power and control and ruling the world. It's just a game to them, and the subjects of the game are just expendable characters to be toyed with.
Make people do very embarrassing things. Laugh at them behind closed doors.
But eventually you will reveal what has been done to them (what they actually did to themselves, at your suggestion -- no, it was never forced. They "chose" it. So you are blameless. You DID actually tell the truth at times, sprinkled in. It's their fault if they didn't figure it out -- so dumb!). Now, laugh at them to their face. Bwahahahahahahaaaaaa!!!!!!! (we are not there yet)
And that is part of the fun for these sociopaths -- when the prank is revealed, and the look of horror on the person's face -- they now have VAIDS, they fired their good employees for no reason, their elderly mother died alone in a nursing home and they didn't hold a funeral, etc.
So! Much! Fun! On so many levels, for these very SICK predatory sociopathic evil monsters.
It's even fun for them, that some of us have figured out their game, but our loved ones have not, so we look on in horror as they continue to jab themselves and we can't protect them or wake them up.
psychopaths seem to be able to recognise other psychopaths -

there is a continuum. Sociopaths/psychopaths are lacking in something which normal humans have. People say it's "empathy."
No, that's not really it. What they lack is compassion.
And they will never go for a "win-win." They only win by making their opponent lose, and their opponent must lose in the most miserable way possible.
They will work hard to find out what you love the most, and they will take that away from you.
They will seek to learn what you fear the most, and they will deliver that right to your door.
Ah yes, I see where you are going with this. It is like they are jealous and have a vindictiveness in their heart, because of their own inadequacies; and they can only feel better by punishing others. The Count of Monte Cristo on steroids!
The Count of Monte Cristo was punishing people who were very guilty.
Revenge of the Nerds V: Party at Davos
true. punishing others for their own shortcomings, while they pretend this makes them 'übermenschen'/supra-human. yes, it's sick!
They know how people feel pain. But they don't care.
very good way of describing it! it's not only that they're lacking compassion or empathy, they don't know what it is and are terrified of it. also they somehow understand that it's something they would want to have, but they can't, which makes them envious. this lies at the heart of their ruthlessness - never going for a win-win but for nothing less than a total crush.
Agreed - and I think all of you have got these people's numbers exactly. Here's an article from the Gurdjieff teaching that you might find relevant: https://bepresentfirst.com/the-rise-of-the-hasnamuss-in-contemporary-politics/
The idea that there are no conspiracies seems wrong post Covid. How could there be so many coincidences if not coordinated? Now the food shortage announcement and factories burning when China and Gates are buying our farmland feels planned. I now question everything. I didn’t take the jabs due to a pre-existing autoimmune disease, but I also never trusted them.
And virtually everything labeled “conspiracy theory” a year ago, 6 months ago or even just 6 weeks ago have proven true. Someone on another blog cleverly said “conspiracy theory = spoiler alert”
very true!
It's ok, we've got a prank lined up as well. We're going to pretend that they're going to the guillotines.
Sure. Like Hillary. Durham wont even charge her lets get real. They never pay a price.
Possibly because of pessimism?
I'm getting my knitting ready.
Wishful thinking Rich!
I know.
It was the ONE question that no journalist EVER asked that made me smell a big rat.
"How many deaths will the lockdowns themselves cause?"
Good article Mark! I remember going to the grocery store and asking the checkout clerk why she was wearing a mask. “People are dying” she said.
It struck me that no one thinks of how many people die each day. For a very very long time (millenia?) we haven’t gone one day without someone dying, if not scores of people dying. I looked up the number and it’s over 2000 deaths per day in the US. Pre Covid post Covid. It’s just gonna happen. Doesn’t make me heartless to say the number. But it can be used to manipulate the uninformed!
(Update: I was way off. Over 8000 per day! 😱. 1.67 per second world wide)
Mark nails one of the key questions I've asked as well: How many people did you personally know - under the age of 80 (or 70) who died from COVID? Even today - 25 months since the official start date of the pandemic - I can only name three people I personally knew who died from Covid. One was 70, one was 80 and one was 81. Three known deaths in 25 months and all of them had lived a long life.
I'm pretty sure that most of the corona maniacs are actually not done. None of it ever made any sense and still doesn't. I knew right away and told my wife (back in March 2020) that none of this is sustainable, everything is gonna break, and they're just going to spread misery.
The part that I got wrong is that I thought that was enough for it to be stopped sooner than later. Little did I know then that the destruction and misery is apparently the goal.
The maniacs don't care if it is a patently obvious farce. Maybe even better for their goal. The corona maniacs are also sadists to some degree IMO. It really is about submission... to an obvious farce.
In a thousand years I would have never thought that 85 percent of the country could be vaccinated ... and then cases still explode ... and almost everyone still thinks the vaccines "work" and should be mandated for everyone.
Never underestimate the stupidity and cupidity of crowds.
If the masses utilized their God-given critical skills, if they weren’t such “skilled TV watchers” they would have refused to comply and this whole government-imposed tragedy would have folded quite quickly. But they didn’t so it didn’t.
Yet another great read! To me, it all added up to evil/control from the beginning, especially it being an election year, but I had no idea how bad it would get. Hubby and I talk about where it will all go from here. I'm undecided. If there is a revival and a return to Christ and morality, we go one way. If not, we continue down this path of destruction until society as we know it completely collapses. There will be a first domino and then it will go fast I think.
Amen.
I was recently with a friend and their 30 something son and we visited a restaurant. The son dutifully placed a mask on his face upon entering and removed it when seated. He then replaced it upon his face to use the restroom and then removed it upon return. I kept my mouth shut as it wasn't my place to stir up a hornet's nest, but this is pure unquestioned conditioning. "It's just what we've always done" seems to be the current modus operandi to why people are doing things that clearly make no rational/scientific sense. It's sad and frightening that people are so blindly compliant.
I was saddened to recently meet an old friend (60 something) at an OUTDOOR restaurant, and yes, he dutifully arrived wearing his mask and kept it on while seated until the food arrived, and even then he randomly would put it back on for awhile. In these parts, as you say you kept your mouth shut, it is considered highly disrespectful to question someone's masking choices. (we never had an outdoor mask mandate here. His reasons remain his own private mystery)
How sad. In saner times we might offer treatment for that type of mental illness.
When I first read your last sentence I thought it said, "his reasons remain his own private misery." Probably true.
And why, if our government is sooo concerned about the health of Americans, were liquor stores deemed essential and open for business while gyms were not.
Even getting outside for a walk was discouraged. Shameful.
Not in Arizona it wasn't. All golf courses stayed open. Our Canadian friends were put thru hell. Worst part? They were convinced their government was doing the right thing.
In Maryland they closed the Chesapeake Bay to private boats. This meant that even if it was you and your wife on a boat and you left from your private dock and sailed around for a couple hours then returned home, nope! You might catch or spread it.
OMG(osh) - remember that California paddleboarder who was chased down and arrested by two harbor patrol boats!?
I’d totally forgotten that early example of police state Covidmania.
Isn’t is crazy when we look back at all of this ridiculousness? And I believe that they’ll try it again. And again. We must not comply next time. It’s the only answer that I can come up with. If everyone refuses to concede our individual rights guaranteed under the USA laws, that will work. (None of these mandates were actually legal, in my opinion.) We must all turn our backs to it, ignore it, not comply. ALL of us. It’s not ‘real’.
I was speaking generically.
Our SC golf courses stayed open here also. Fun to watch a 4-some of solo-driven (for safety protocols!) golf carts roll by.
I live winters in the wilderness of California by a ski resort. No one here even thought for one moment to obey the stupid shut down directives. When we went to the big city of Modesto 75 miles away all the food factory and winery and orchard workers kept working as "essential workers". There was never an interruption. The very idea that anyone THAT ANYONE would obey stay at home "orders" was as laughable then as it is now. The anecdotal stories of most all normal old age or cancer or heart attack & etc deaths being recorded as covid deaths just confirmed the fact that it was all a hoax. No... I realize covid is a serious seasonal virus that does indeed kill but obviously not any more serious than HonKing flu or Swine Flu of a few years prior... yes of course it is a real disease... that's not the hoax part... just the overreaction is... anyway... ...from March of 2020 we knew it was a terrible overreaction. Why anyone much less a whole nation would obey stay at home and mask up orders made no sense. A BB going thru a chain link fence is the same as a covid virus germ going thru a mask for Christ sake... anyone who know anything about the science of are sold knows this... anyway... So we all just ignored it ... and no one ever told us we had to. Except at the doors to stores. Where we all put on a mask for the 20 seconds to get into the store. Question: who was dumb enough to take the stay at home orders seriously? Oh wait I know I know... it was and still is 80% of the population. The only thing g that keeps me sane about it all? Is... The fact that Canada and Australia and NZ and England were all even worse!!!!!
My god ...how can we blame today's Russians for believing their obviously false war propaganda? When look at the way "we" believed the Covid propaganda... crazy stuff ehhh?
You figured out the covid scam but can't figure out the Russia Ukraine war scam?
Come on joe. Explain

I had a back-and-forth email dialogue with the leading sports columnist in my state. He wrote a series of columns in the summer of 2020 basically calling for the cancellation of college football (and all sports) to protect the athletes. Even in July 2020 I could tell him that COVID posed no risk to healthy young athletes. Furthermore, if he wanted to save the proverbial "one life," he should call for the abolition of the sport of football - which kills about five to 12 people every year (from broken necks, heart attacks, heat stroke, etc).
Goodman is a clown.
Another sad lesson: People proven to be spectacularly wrong never face any repercussions for being spectacularly wrong. As a writer myself, I sometime go back and read old articles I wrote just to see if what I wrote "holds up." Just about every piece our well-known columnists write does NOT hold up and looks silly in retrospect. Doesn't matter. These people still are considered authorities and remain "opinion makers."
...and from brain injuries.
